dealing with bursitis

Chronic hip pain management, especially from bursitis, can be both debilitating and frustrating. At Logan Physiotherapy, we specialise in hip pain management and dealing with bursitis through comprehensive and personalised treatment plans. If you’re looking for effective relief from chronic pain, you’re in the right place. Let’s explore how we can help you manage your hip pain and improve your quality of life.

What is Bursitis?

The condition is the inflammation of the bursae, small fluid-filled sacs that cushion the bones, tendons, and muscles around your joints. In the hip, the condition often affects the trochanteric bursa located on the outside of the hip. Symptoms of the condition include:

  • Sharp pain on the outer hip, thigh, or buttock
  • Pain that intensifies with prolonged activity
  • Swelling and tenderness around the hip
  • Difficulty lying on the affected side

Chronic pain is not only distressing but also impairs daily activities and quality of life. Diagnosing the condition requires a consult with experienced practitioners. Book a Consult with Logan Physio and find out more.

Hip Pain Management: Bursitis

Managing the condition involves a multimodal approach that targets the pain pathway. At Logan Physiotherapy, our experienced team employs evidence-based techniques to provide effective relief. Here are some essential components of our bursitis management:

Manual Therapy

Manual therapy involves hands-on techniques to mobilise the hip joint and surrounding tissues. This helps reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance function. Techniques such as soft tissue massage, joint mobilisations, and stretching exercises are tailored to meet your specific needs.

Exercise Therapy

Customised exercise programs are crucial for strengthening the hip muscles, improving flexibility, and reducing pain. Our physiotherapists design targeted exercise routines that include strengthening, stretching, and functional movements to support your recovery.

Pain Relief Modalities

We offer various pain relief modalities to complement our manual and exercise therapies. These may include ultrasound, electrical stimulation (TENS), and heat or cold therapy. These modalities help reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and accelerate the healing process.

Education and Lifestyle Modifications

Understanding your condition and making appropriate lifestyle modifications are essential for long-term relief from the condition. Our physiotherapists provide guidance on proper posture, ergonomics, and activity modifications to prevent further irritation of the bursa.
